That last one looks like the Trouter's Special. It left St. John's early on Saturday morning of the 24th May long weekend and dropped off trouters along the way where ever they wanted. The trouters would either have made the arrangements before hand or let the conductor know along the way. The 'Special' made its way to the Argentia station (I think) where it waited until the evening. It then returned to St. John's picking up anyone waiting alongside the tracks. It only did the trip this one day and was looked forward to by a lot of people. The return trip was usually quite the party I have been told.
